A generous donation from former Liverpool FC striker Robbie Fowler has kicked off a test-run of a 'community kitchen' in West Derby, which promises everyone the right to a hot meal.
The Scouse Kitchen is the brainchild of West Derby MP Ian Byrne, formed as part of his Right To Food campaign which aims to make access to food a human right, and "end the scandal of hunger and foodbanks once and for all".
He said: “The Scouse Kitchen pilot we are running this week is a much-needed intervention for many families living here. I have mums, dads and carers in West Derby who cannot afford to put food on their family’s table, and I wanted to provide this opportunity for them to sit down together as a family in a restaurant setting and eat a meal together, in dignity, for free."
